The Sopranos was , Boardwalk Empire has never been available as a full boxset only catchup episodes probably due to DVD sales.

Re: General Sky TV Discussion

Do we know a definitive date on when Sky plan to open up Anytime+ to other ISP's?

I can, Infact I am using Sky Anytime+ on my Virginmedia connection. Problem is at the moment you need Sky broadband before they will activate Anytime+.

It word perfectly though, so its already opened up to other providers but currently they won't activate it.

Sky teases details of Sky Race Contol F1 iPad app and interactive services

Quote:
The Sky Sports F1 HD team has hinted at some of the features it hopes to include in its official Formula One iPad application, Sky Race Control. And the highlight so far is that it will allow viewers to watch the multiple live video streams on their tablet devices normally restricted to Sky's own red button service.

Sky Race Control is the banner the company will be using across all of its interactive services, red button and internet included, with the website also to give F1 fans the chance to look at alternative camera angles, on-board cameras and extra information, both video and otherwise.

Speaking to Pocket-lint at the impressive new Sky Studios complex in Isleworth, Martin Turner, executive producer of F1 HD, explained that a massively improved interactive channel line-up is something that Sky can provide that the BBC couldn't.

"Technically speaking, our multi-screen offering will be the biggest change," he said. "We will be offering [viewers] a choice of on-board cameras that they’ve never had before. We’ll be offering a live Pit Channel. Sky will be covering the pits as its own channel, to see what’s going on there because there’s always something going on in the pits even without the cars being there."
